SRITAIN DAILY HERALD, M HALGHTON SISTEM A VICTORY CETTER pach of Crimson Squad Holds Unique Position in Grid Game. Six points for Harvard against} Michigan, twenty Princeton, thirty-six against Yale, and it plaged somebody next Saturday they'd The Harvard teams against they ¢ make a hundred. cf 1901 and 1912 were crack tean ut neither used its power with more | gkillful application to produce pre- eision than the 1914 outfit. “The best c6ached team I ever w,” remarked a former player of note and one who ias seen many tean here is an ever present difficulty in reckoning the strength of any team, and that has to do with adjusting the factors of that team’s strength and the defensive abilitiy of the other side. Yale made it easier for Harvard on Saturday by damaging misplays when withih short scoring range of . Har- vard's goal and by some of the poorest tackling a Yale team ever did. The tackling weakened a defense which all season was shaky, But if flaws in the helped Harvard the results obtained by the efforts of the splendidly drilled Ca ridge men helped still more. The fact remains that this Harvard team made more points than a Har- ‘ard team ever had wmade against Yale or Princeton and that its de- ‘ense was good enough to prevent gcoring by a Yale team which really had strong points of offense. Fifty- pix points against Yale and Princeton s pretty good evidence of an unusually ptrong attack. There was a sureness land finality in Harvard's playing rare- attained by any team, and in the Superiority of Harvard's line to Yale's s a big part of the answer to Saturday's result. The Haughton system of offense has etted thirty-nine points for Harvard against Princeton for the, last three ars, Princeton having scored six Points on Harvard in that time. The Haughton system has earned seventy- one points in the last three years agaidst Yale, and only five points have beer made by Yale. 'This is an im- pressive record of combined offense hnd defense against the two teams he Crimson desires most to beat. Tt something for Yale and Princeton 'o pender deeply while laying next car’s plans to stop the mastery of the ‘ambridze elevens. Tt also shows the faculty of the Harvard teams fo heing at their best for their most im portant games. Harvard was much better against Princeton than against igan and still better—at the pzenith of its form—against Yale than kigainst Princeton. The craftiest move in football in a long time, if it was so planned, was the way things were worked up to the ap- | pearance of Brickley in the Yale game - and what was done when he did ap- ear. Ever since the Harvard captain »ft the hospital there had been talk thdt he might get into the Yale game just to kick a field goal. During the sreliminaries on Saturday Brickley as off by himself at one end of the field practicing drop kicking. De- signedly or not, the stage was set 8o that most everybody of the 70,000 present looked for a field goal at- tempt when Brickley did appear. Jf it was a coup in psychology it was a stroke of genius. When Rrick- ley went in the ball was near the Yale goad; line, at easy distance for a field drop kick, though over to one side, and it looked as if Harvard would run a play toward the middle line of the field’s length to permit of a straight kick if one wasn't attempted right away. What happened? - Harvard ran plays, but they didn’t involve Brick- ley at all except® mental suggestion created by his presence. If there were Yale players and coaches who were “wise,”” and the latter couldn’t do anything if they were, great was the surprise in the stands, with all eyes on Brickley, when that player merely lecoked on and another back took the bal} and went hurtling still nearer to Yale’s goal. <Brickley kicked a goal, but it was from touchdown, and that that was the sort of goal he was going to kick there hadn’t been an inkling. The game didn’t prove that the at- tracgive open work passing wasn’t an Yale defense | Covinthian | Hartford, yesterd ; undergraduate support effective device for ground gaining; rather the reverse. What times it worked it was valuable and it put Yale in position to score. The com- plex passing did its share in providing opportunities which were lost by poor handling of the ball in other plays. Harvard stopped lateral pass plays, but Harvard didn't stop all of them or enough of them to have prevented scoring had Yale's running attack done as much for its part. Not once in the Princeton game was a lateral pass intercepted and only once in the Harvarad .'."nne proof of how expertly these passes were manipulated. With that expertness acquired the preven- tion of some long gains is something no team has been able to do.

Tthaca, Nov. 23.—It cost Cornell $93,148 to run her athletics last yvear and the income of the athletic asso- ciation was §$90,148, according to the financial statement for the year ended August 31, made public here Saturday night. The deficit of $3,000 was incurred mainly through the cost of permanent improve- ments to property. Football brought in $36,000 and cost $26,000; track 2nd cross-country cost $15,000 and brought in $5.300. Tt cost $15,- 000 to develop the crews; the receipts were $5,100. Cornell also spent $3,000 on boathouse improvements and $1,000 in boat building. Baseball cost $13,- 500 and brought in $14,200 Direct through the purchase of season tickets brought in about $20,000. Spring day showed $4,000 profit. ¥ootball Sports ARMY T M CES PROBLEM. Footing Too Treacherous for Outdoor Foothball Practice. West Point, Nov. 23.—With the gridiron a ‘quagmire which freezes hard each night and thaws out dur- ing the succeeding day, a most dis- couraging outlook faces the Army men in their final preparations for the Navy game next Saturday. Ex- cept for. Springfield game Saturday the Army eleven has had no outdoor work since last Wednesda Unless the weather turns warm and dry there is very little prospect of the team getting a chance to even lim- ber up in the open before it leaves for Philadelphia, for every square foot of ground in the vicinity is cov- ered with snow and ice. To risk play on the field in its present conditions would seem foolhardy no chances will be taken at this late date. MAHAN . AND WILSON. As the Yale-Harvard game passas into history, speculation arises as to the probable selection of captains for the 1915 teams. Alex Wilson, the Eli's quarterback, is slated for the the berth at Yale while Eddie Mahan is the logical candidate at Harvord. Wilson and Mahan have endured two seasons of varsity work at their re- spective institutions and are looked upon as stars of the first magnitude.

Including the travel to New Haven the night before the big game be- tween 37,000 and 37,500 persons were carried to New Haven from all points of the New Haven system. Th breaks all records for travel on that road and is believed to establish a record for a mass movement of pas- sengers by any railroad. The performance of the morning, when this crowd was transported to New Haven within four hours, was | repeated Saturday evening. Between 5:20 p. m. and 6:20 p. m. Saturday evening there were taken out of the station at New Haven approximately | 18,000 people or 300 per minute. Be- tween 4:40 p. m. and 7:15 p. m. the train took out of the station appr mately 33,000 people, or 220 per min- ute. A total of 65 trains and 618 ca were used in moving tite football crowd Forty-three of these trains were spe- cial trains. These 65 trains were moved over the road and their 33,378 passengers loaded and unloaded with- out serious mishap of any kind, a fact of which the operating and traflic de- partments of the New Haven feel justly proud.

(Correspondence Associated Press.) Berlin, Nov. 4.—The prospect of a winter campaign in Russia presents no terrors to the German military writers, now dealing with the prab- lem of a long continuance of the war. ar from anticipating a repetition of disastrous experience in mpaign, they look up- on the great Corsican’s conquero: General December and General Jan- uary, as allies who will remove for them two of the greatest obstacles to against the Russians, the transportation problem that of overcoming the natural defenses of the country, its swamps and rivers. The expert of the Deutsche Tages- zeitung points out, too, that the Rus- sians, in order to stem the German advance, have relied largely on en- trenchments laid out on a tremendous scale. Once the ground is solidly frozen the construction of such works for defence will be greatly hampered. Elaborate Fortifications, “Every battle has demonstrated the value to the Russians of the trenches, and other military field works,” says the writer. “It has been difficult in all cases to take positions so pro- tected and the Russian successes have been mostly due to the laying out of fortified positions in the open field. “With the ground frozen and lorger easily worked with pick and shovel, the laying out of earthworks will be made extremely difficult, and the Russians, whose forte from the times of Napoleon to Mukden, has lain in the defense of fiel¢ fortifications, will thus lose the most important fac- tor in defensive tactics. “Troops operating on the offensive n:ust deal with the ‘fifth element,’ as apoleon called the Russian mud. In the winter the bad roads are cov- ered with snow and may then be used by sleighs, and the great rivers and swamps which form the principal fac- tors in the Russian defense lines will then be covered with ice, 1)(‘rmitllng easy crossing everywhere. no Advantages of Winter. “The idea that winter was the best season in which an attack on Russia might be made is that of a genial sol- dier of history, Charles ' XII of Sweden, who afterward demonstrated the correctness of his conclusion. He waited with his advance into Russia in 1707 until cold weather had set in, and after the rivers and swamps of Fcland had been frozen over, he crossed the Vistula on December 29 and advanced rapidly as far as Wilna, where he intended to overtake the re- treating Russians. The enemy, how- T, retreated again, and this winter mpaign brought no result, because King Charles could not get the Rus- sians to stand. ‘“Napoleon counted on the aid of winter in his campaign in 1806, But the weather was against him. De- cember of that year left.the roads as soft as they have been in the autumn, and the French were obliged to quar- themselves upon the Poles and wait for cold weather. Frost finally came on February 1 and six days later the battle at Prussian-Eylau was fought.

Ihey are the result of Dr. Edwards’ determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. His efforts to banish it brought out these little olive-colored tablets. These pleasant little tablets do the good that calcmel does but have no bad after ef- fects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the | trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Cal- | omel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. 8o do strong liquids. 1t is best not to take calomel, but to let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets take its place. Most headaches, “dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets when you feel“loggy”and“heavy." Note how they “clear” clouded brain and how they “perk up” the spirits. At 10c and 25c_per box. All druggists.

MERCY IS SHOWN IN POLICE COURT Also a Ride in Ncw Automebie Patrol i Expensive Luxury. which “droppeth rain from heaven,” spared Dominick Flazzi and Arctillio Barnettocci a criminal record in the New Britain police court this morning. Judge Mangan gave them the benefit of the doubt instead of a fine and costs as is imposed on most persons who are un- fortunate enough to find themselves in the toils of the law., Officer Wagner yesterday morning found some men removing lumber from John W, Allen & Son's property or. Chestnut street. They told him they had received permission to take the lumber, but John W. Allen denied this when the officer called him ‘on the telephone. The men were ar- rested. Mr. that there had been a slight error in arresting the men. Children have been permitted to take away shavings and small pieces of lumber and the watchman had told Plazzi and his partners that the ever was worthless to the company. It seems that Plazzi is doing some bLuilding at 175 Clark street and con- scquently his judgment as to what lumber was worthless to the company was not absolutely unbiased. The shortest pieces taken were four or five feet long and Plazzi's wheel barrow contained a choice selection of timber, most of which, however, had been used at some time. Judge Mangan believed henest and prompted by worthy motives. The mistake was just as much the watchman's as theirs and Mr. Allen agreed with him. The men were discharged. The usual sentences were for drunkenness and Joseph Murphy was given thirty davs for vagrancy. Michael &'allinan was fined $5 for drunkenness and ecredit for two months in which to pay the debt.

Chojnoski was the first man to ride in the new automobile patrol wagon Saturday and it evidently costs more to ride in the new automobile than in a common horse drawn vehicle.
